d they were as tall as they are today

Explanation:

Fossils of horse ancestors (e.g., Hyracotherium) show they were small (fox - sized), had multiple toes (four on front feet in early forms), and lived in forested/marshy environments. Their teeth were adapted for browsing (not pointed like carnivores). Modern horses are larger.

Answer:

B. Older fossils show that early horses were about the size of a fox, and they had four long toes.
C. Horse ancestors lived in wooded marshlands.
